Day #2209 (Thu., Jan 21, 2016) – Storm’s A Comin…

On the drive to Glenwood this morning Katie said that when she gets older she plans to get a female dog and call her “Vanilla Cupcake”. She asked me to speak to her mom about this when I got home in case she forgot.

A big winter storm is forecast for the area so my wife asked me to stop off at Target on the way home to get a big box of #5 diapers for little Bobby. We certainly don’t want to be snowed in with no access to clean diapers. Nightmare Scenario!!!

2016-01-21 - Clock ChalkboardWhile at Target I was planning on picking up a little chalkboard in the shape of a clock for Katie as she is starting to learn how to tell time. It was in the $1 bin but I said I didn’t want it when $3 rang up in the cash register. Everyone and their dog were there stocking up on supplies for the “Big Snowstorm” that is due to hit tomorrow. I can see why shopping at Amazon is becoming more and more popular…

Tonight we talked about how we should have a generator around for storms like this…especially with little Bobby. We could always huddle in the kitchen next to the gas stove and put blankets on the windows and doors to keep the heat in. Now there is a thought… Little Bobby would love this as he always loves it when we assemble together on Katie’s bed.
